Jamie Knight-Lebel

Jamie Knight-Lebel of Motherwell was born in La Pocatière, Canada on 24 December 2004 (age 21).

Jamie Knight-Lebel, born 24 December 2004 (age 21), is a Canadian central defender whose senior career has so far been shaped mainly at Motherwell. Wearing No 4, he has made three league appearances for the Lanarkshire club in 2026-27, alongside one League Cup appearance and four in Conference League qualifiers.

Before that, his league football included two appearances for Bristol City in 2023-24. That remains a small body of first-team work, but it gives the basic outline of a defender still building his senior record rather than one with a settled long CV.

Across all competitions, Knight-Lebel has made eight appearances for Motherwell. At this stage his career is straightforward: a Canadian centre-half with early senior minutes in England and a Motherwell spell that carries most of the substance so far.
